My only bug-eating experiences thus far have been a chocolate-covered scorpion bought online and some Madagascar hissing cockroaches boiled in chicken broth with some other spices.

The scorpion tasted ok I guess, albeit I did cut the roof of my mouth on the chitin. The cockroaches had been fed apples and aquarium fish food, so naturally they ended up tasting like fish food.

I'd still like to try some fried ants or crickets or something, they always look so delicious in the pictures

I fuckin' love popcorn jelly beans.

I actually could stomach most of the revolting Bertie Botts ones. The one that finally pushed me to puking was not "vomit," but "earwax."

Who in the poo poo tasted earwax to make that flavor. WHO?!

This is one of the stupidest things I've ever seen. There's the element of trying to make rustic food into cuisine, but then there's also the laziness of not managing to capture even the basic elements of the original food that make it worth eating. The funny thing is that with more people using torches in the home to finish stuff off, making haute cuisine smores for dessert that way would actually be easier than what they've attempted to do here.

The entire loving point of a smore is to pry that sweet sweet maillard reaction out of what is otherwise a mostly tastless glob of sadness. The graham cracker and the chocolate are there to give it texture and a nice balance between hot/cold. It's loving great, and so loving easy.

This recipe manages to be harder, take longer, and be objectively worse. The key mistake was trying to pass them off as smores rather than Marshmallow Chocolate Puffs.

I am angry about desserts, and smores are loving great. Anybody who doesn't like a smore is probably a communist.

I don't understand why I find this thread to be the funniest on the entire forums. This is the second time something in this thread has made me laugh helplessly, this and the Sad Pea Soup. I don't understand. Ohhhh god.


I WANT IT MORE!!!!!!




I mean...I guess it's probably fine? Or something? I have no idea why you would use chocolate frosting in mole. Mole isn't supposed to be sweet, right? Why?

Don't be too disappointed if your first attempts result in gravy that tastes like liquid flour or just salt or flour and salt. My grandma made amazing gravy with this method and I've been doing it for years and it still doesn't come out 100% of the time.

Just remember to taste as you go.

E: If you can't get duck drippings to make delicious duck gravy, at least try finding some place that serves duck fat fries and use those for your poo teen

E2: if you decide to hand-cut your own fries like we do, par-boil for about 10 minutes before frying and pat them dry before you put them in the oil. The oil needs to be hot af too.

One of the new ones is Parmesan Truffle or something like that. I want to try those because, really, how badly can you gently caress up parmesan truffle potato chips.

Now everyone just breads poo poo in Doritos so are we any worse now than we were before? I saw this in the Rite Aid down the street from me yesterday.



It's AFP to me because I loving hate yellow soda.

It's the ranch that really ruins it. Using spicy cheetos as breadcrumbs isn't too bad, its dredging the chicken in ranch that takes to too far.

Ugggggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. I'd fight someone for putting that in front of me. I'm all for elevating regular dishes, but there's something hosed up about trying it on something fun like nachos. That's like deconstructing paella or beef stew.

Ah yes, sweet pasta dishes are a thing in the Czech republic. I've been treated to the pasta/cream cheese/sugar variety a number of times. Pasta with sugar and ground ups poppy seeds is also popular.



The strangest variety is probably the one with breadcrumbs and sugar. It used to be one of my favorite meals when I was a child:

I mentioned way back I would eat cricket protein if it was cheaper. Sadly I didn't find it cheap, but I tried this little bar today, $3.50 though, which is outrageous.



It was actually pretty tasty. It had a slight metallic/acidic aftertaste that was very similar to the taste of ants. (my cousin and I ate ants when I was like 8 for some reason and I'll never forget that taste) Overall pretty good though and I would eat them all the time if they were $1 instead of $3.50...
